Inconsistent description

Noted that some countries'/territories' passports are listed by reference to the 'nationality' and others by reference to the nation's name. Contrast the inclusion of the Monégasque passport (rather than 'Monaco passport') but San Marino passport (and not 'Sammarinese passport'). Random jotter (talk) 20:03, 17 August 2014 (UTC)

Taiwan

How about a page on passports from Taiwan. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cape fox (talk • contribs) 20:52, 1 February 2007 (UTC).

See Taiwan passport BushelCandle (talk) 05:28, 25 March 2016 (UTC)

Lists for Visa-free travel 'for passport-type/citizen' and 'to country'

Iroquois passport

As of my last information (sometime in the previous century) the Iroquois League issues passports; acceptance is probably rather hit-or-miss, but I think National Geographic had a story about the League as peacemakers, and a trip to some South American nation to mediate a native-rights dispute; the mediators presented their Iroquois passports, which were immediately accepted and stamped. It may be some time before I can locate a reference. J S Ayer (talk) 01:34, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Also the Government-in-exile for Cabinda also issues some sort of passport CK6569 (talk) 20:57, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

See [2] - Iroquois passport is listed as "fantasy passport" in Schengen. Maybe we should remove it from the list or move it to a fantasy/camouflage section? Alinor (talk) 07:22, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Suriname

Alphabetization of Taiwan

Just a note to say that Taiwan should be alphabetized under "T" per WP:Naming conventions (Chinese). Laurent (talk) 21:52, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

That's fine. As long as we also stick to the other conventions in there...namely, the one about using long-form names to avoid ambiguity and one-sided POVs. Night w (talk) 03:32, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

I'm fine with this compromise. Laurent (talk) 11:46, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Admitting I had missed the sentence on Taiwan when WikiLaurent directed me to that page before. The table supported the use of the China formation instead of Taiwan. I apologize for apparent edit war. Khajidha (talk) 17:50, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

On a slightly different note, why have a list and a gallery? Why not integrate the two? Khajidha (talk) 22:48, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Copy right issues

I am afraid there are copyright issues with the gallery and have started a discussion at WP:Media copyright questions#passport images in galleries and passport images with the uploader as "owner". Feel free to comment! L.tak (talk) 16:01, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
